🦅 Brandon Graham is a beloved member of the Eagles and the longest tenured Philly athlete. flyeaglesfly NBCSPhilly
Graham, who turns 35 next month, probably could have made more money on the open market but it’s really hard to imagine him ever putting on another uniform. This way, he gets a solid deal and the opportunity to make at least one more playoff run with the Eagles.
"I definitely don't want to miss out on this championship that we're about to make a run for," Graham told ESPN."I pretty much directed [agent] Joel [Segal] just to get a deal done before free agency so I wouldn't have to go through that part. I'm just so happy everything came to fruition. "It wasn't even about no money. It was more about wanting to be an Eagle as long as I could still play at a high level, and of course I still have a sour taste in my mouth on how things ended this last year."
It’s not like this is a move based in sentimentality either. Graham in 2022 became a part-time player but he flourished, even coming off an Achilles tear that ended his 2021 season early. Graham played just 43% of the Eagles’ defensive snaps in 2022 but played every game and set a career-high with 11 sacks.
